  • Lug nut lock- 10 Point Star HELP!

    I found some wheels at the JY and they take a 10 point star pattern, Male end, about 12 mm diameter.... they are off of a 1980 nissan 280zx.... Torx doesn't work b/c torx are 6 point, and i can't find anything with a hex that will fit... PLUS i need the male end, as the lug nuts on the car look like a deep socket. any suggestions how I can find this? I tried to find a number on the lugs, but couldn't see any.

      Hammer a socket (12 point) over it that is close in size. Or they do make a special set of sockets for this. I don't know where to get them, but my friend has them at his shop.

          Think these might work? I have used them on regular locking lug nuts with good luck..
